EDWARD HARDY, Petitioner, v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Respondent.
(G Deck)
Assigned To : Unassigned
Assign. Date : 8/17/2016
Description: Habeas Corpus/2241 MEMORANDUM OPINION
This matter comes before the Court upon review of the petitioner's application for leave to proceed in forma pauperis and pro se Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus Under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. The application will be granted but the complaint will be dismissed.
The instant complaint is substantially similar to a motion filed in the petitioner's criminal case, see United States v. Hardy, No. 11cr27 (D.D.C. filed June 16, 2016), seeking reconsideration of his sentence. Therefore, the instant complaint will be dismissed as duplicative.
An Order is issued separately.
